Riyadh has rejected US accusations against the prince to murder a journalist
Jamal Hashoggi



Last week, US senators unanimously adopted a resolution from which it follows that the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, is directly related to the death of the journalist Hashoggi.

The Kingdom rejects the position recently expressed by the US Senate, which is based on unfounded accusations and claims, and also contains a gross interference in the internal affairs of Saudi Arabia,
the statement said MFA.

The ministry stressed that “deep strategic political and economic relations and security relations” were established between the countries. Riyadh reaffirms its commitment to the further development of these relations, but at the same time "expresses concern" regarding the position taken by the US lawmakers, the document says.

Recall, Khasoggi from 2017 year lived in the United States and worked as a columnist for the Washington Post. He disappeared in Istanbul on October 2 after he entered the building of the Saudi Consulate General. Two weeks later, Saudi media reported that the Attorney General of the Kingdom announced that, according to preliminary data, Khasoggi was dead, and a quarrel with the staff of the diplomatic mission resulted in his death.

    I’m afraid that a dynastic crisis has become inevitable, my father is old, my son is not legitimate and not shaking hands ...

        When the empire stumbles upon something solid, it begins to collapse itself. This happened with the Persians who stumbled upon the Macedonians, and how many ran into Great Scythia and did not count. An empire cannot stagnate; if it ceases to eat and absorb its neighbors, then collapse begins. Here, the Russian Federation still survived and the West fell, the contradictions within the EU / USA / PRC agglomeration began, the contradictions within the EU (Brexit, the New French Revolution), the USA (the war of incriminating evidence, the Latino campaign) began, and the PRC (the next New Gang of Four was recently cleared). The Arabian Empire ran into the Hussites, the Arab Spring ran into Assad (or rather, the one behind him). NATO expansion to the East ran into the Russian spring. Scythia became a stumbling block and the World Order began to crack, and in some places already to crumble. Therefore, endurance and a wait-and-see attitude (where there is no way to make a swift rout of the enemy) of the Supreme is justified.

      Who is not a handshake? And with Trump he "handles" and with Putin, without any problems. But this statement is the height of arrogance and an understanding of complete impunity ... they say we "turned" all of you on the "fan", along with your evidence

        This is only symbolic, and both already understand that they are shaking hands with the corpse ... so far political. Not only that, they will be put pressure on Trump, who merges classically. And the world media have already passed a sentence and the Yemen campaign, apparently soon ending in the death of the SA itself. The prince failed to become a conqueror, could not become a sophisticated politician, the alleged impunity and the narrow-minded mind apparently played a cruel joke with him. The prince also betrayed his faithful companions, and this is a sign that others will either run away at a difficult moment or stab a knife in the back. It seems that the Saudi dynasty is doomed ...

          I beg you, this is a fairy tale. He will become King, whether we like it or someone else or not. He will begin to communicate with him and solve matters, since all this will soon be forgotten, as the scandal with the supply of missile engines by Ukraine to the DPRK was forgotten, well, it is not profitable for the "powers of this world"

            Speaking of the reformatting of BV and Arabia, they spoke in advance. Yemen is one of the forms of such an action. Whoever brought the Arabian monarchies there did, too, provoking Saddam to capture Kuwait, Milosevic to attack Croatia, perhaps even the USSR to send troops to Afghanistan. The result is dismemberment and privatization. And in Arabia there is something to privatize.

          World fake media?
          The investigation is not over. The USA has no legal right to "decide" anything. Their personal inclinations are theirs. All the US needed was oil and gas from the Saudis, a split in OPEC.

            Strange as it may seem, the world media are passing sentences and the heads of powerful states sometimes even have nowhere to go. The death of Khashoggi is part of the dynastic crisis, he supported other heirs. The conflict is that after the death of Saud’s son, the next oldest son of Saud took the throne. Now the last on the throne, but what's next. The eldest son of the eldest bin Saud or the eldest son of the current - the younger bin Saud. Yes, a preliminary sweep of the field has been carried out by the current prince, but gigantic problems have begun, all against the backdrop of the Yemeni failure, political killings, etc. Papa ben Saud may survive his son. We will see.

                  But Turkey still does not know about it. Turkey does not condemn the Saudis in actions on the territory of another state; they do not concern Turkey in any way.
                  Right, funny - a person in an indefinite status travels to another state that does not trust him in order to enter the territory of a state hostile to him ?! This question is still not explained by anyone.
                  They don’t send the embassy either ...
                  And the detention of 15 people (witnesses!) Is not carried out. There is no emergency.

      Yes, everything will be fine with him. Now Trump will extradite Gulen (the arrests of the Gulenists have already begun) or is carrying out his last journey. Erdogan will say: "Oh, but there was a mistake about the prince - he is innocent!" And that's all: contracts, material assistance and posts are saved.

      But shaw, is he the Crown Prince personally?
      Andrei, this insignificant person does not represent anything for the crown prince, except for secured untouchability - like a "childhood friend" at court.
      All his "opposition" is a struggle for power. Dvortsovaya.
      By the way, murder in the embassy is not blamed - only the possible concealment / transportation of the corpse through the territory of Turkey. These are the statements of the Turks.

    Well, yes: "I am not me and the horse is not mine" .... And what is most interesting, after all, it was a ride! No sanctions, no obstruction in the media, or hysterical "human rights" - NOTHING! At first, something arose in the EU, then it stalled ... over there in France, problems like .... and "braksit" and all that stuff are more important ....

      No, well, and sho, otmazy trump, and most importantly - proven. Boeing was shot into Ukraine because it did not promptly introduce a no-fly zone in that area, and the Russians were to blame. Hashshoghi was killed in the Saudi consulate, but the Syrian chef who outsourced was to blame ...
